Barranquilla, Colombia's main Caribbean port, attracted Jewish immigrants of various origins from the nineteenth century onward: Caribbean Sephardim, Ottoman Jews (from Syria and Lebanon), and Ashkenazim from Eastern Europe. Active in trade, textiles, and industry, these immigrants founded solid communal institutions; the city was home to one of the most dynamic Jewish communities in Colombia during the twentieth century.
